As a writer, certified reiki + sound practitioner, and a practicingTransformational Language Artist, Kristian is the creator, and visionary behindDear Mama,a gentle healing space for mamas to open the heart, and free the soul through poetry, journaling, mindfulness + community. She uses writing as a catalyst to assist her students in owning their stories by creating a safe space for healing rooted in love, mindfulness, shame resilience, and forgiveness. She is currently working on her debut poetry collection to be released in August.Kristian describes using her journal as a way to know thyself. To bring to the surface and heal what was suppressed. Pen-to-paper allows you to see yourself fully and wrap your arms around it all."From girlhood to womanhood, journal and poetry therapy was the catalyst to write myself out of the dark and into the light".-Kristian Le'ChelleCreating safe space is my only job. As with any group, any “population,” my job is not to help them; to believe so would be hierarchical self-flattery. Beyond providing guidance, it is my job to “just be,” so they can let the river of their words take them, to be free. It is my role to bear witness without judgment to the struggles the writer is facing or the road they are on, no matter how different it may look from the one I’m traveling. I am not there to teach anyone anything but to provide them the opportunity and safety to express and learn from their own innate wisdom.- Let The River Take Me, Joanna Tebbs Young______________________________________________________________________________________________________
